New Tool Tuesday: Piktochart

When I found out I was pregnant, a few thoughts raced through my mind:

OMG, seriously?

How am I going to tell Lucas?

How am I going to tell my parents?

How am I going to be able to tell the blog?

I had fun with ALL of the announcements I made, but I really loved building the infographic that eventually did break the baby news here. (Refresher in this post.)

And I did it through a very cool new tool — Piktochart.com. I used the free version, but there is also a pro version starting at $14.99 a month. Obviously if you’re a designer by trade, you’d design your own templates anyway, but if you’re like me and you have lots of info to share and terrible design/graphic sense, it can be a great resource.

Piktochart offers:

Design tools

Built in graphics

Easy-to-edit text fields

Different templates, colors, etc.

The ability to export to multiple formats

I also really dig the blog from the Piktochart team, which has some helpful hints about building infographics, etc.

I know some people think that this trend has passed, but I LOVE infographics — those that are done well, anyway.
